Wondering why such user don’t want go for unifi/home fibre? It will be much more stable and faster! I use my friend Maxis home fibre can go up to 180Mbps.

Why not switch to Maxis Home Fibre (RM89) + Mobile Plan (RM98)? It will give you unlimited mobile internet as well.

are you in YTL developed project? Or in rural area?

is true that 4G faster than streamyx. but now I think not difficult to get unifi/maxis fibre...the ex-minister did a lot to push the fibre, increase speed and lower down the price.

I'm not.

I'm considering this option: maxis home fibre + maxis one plan.

I'm just curious why people are trying so hard to put the i150 into Huawei modem. and the modem also not cheap.

i150 + another mobile plan for phone call = ~RM200? this maybe easier to get with maxis? I am not sure.

another example: If say my area no fibre, I can install the home fibre in my brother house? then I use the mobile internet? Faster speed for Maxis 4LTE, but it has no VoLTE. But it save a lot more actually.

thanks for your sharing. This is helpful.

you might get me wrong. your reason is very solid, because there is no fibre in your area. My situation is different here...I has been using i150 for 3 years (I think, since the plan launched), and I'm in dilemma now whether I should make a switch.

p/s: I use my iPhone to hotspot all the while, because I want to save money.

Thanks for your sharing. I think I should get one modem to try on it.

Just bought one to try. Let's see if the signal improve and conveniency.



update #1:

I took out the digi i150 from my iPhone and put into the B618.
At home, iPhone internet speed will be around 1-2Mbps at night, and ~10Mbps in day time.

By using B618, the speed at night is around 6-7Mbps, and 20-30Mbps in day time.
Also, the internet speed is very stable and constant in B618.
No issue to receive call from other people while using internet.

This is really good way to improve the Digi internet speed when home.

But, I need to do SIM card switching from iPhone to B618 and vice versa when home/go out.
A little troublesome here. Hmm...

The good news is, I not need depends on B618 when I working at outside.
Usually I can get 50Mbps internet speed when I working out from home.

I call to 123 before.

they told me the speed will throttle to 64kbps. LOL

What's your experience so far?

I did this.

Perfect for one person or sometimes two.
Not so okay for many ppl usage.
